Women on JTF/Bringing Women to JTF
DownwithIslam:
Chaimfan is the truest member of this forum. Their is nobody who represents JTF ideals better than him. Chaim has expressed his appreciation for Chaimfan many times and said that Chaimfan has Chaims support if anything happens. Scriabin, if you don't like Chaimfan, I suggest you look at yourself internally and figure out if JTF is really an org you believe in.
DownwithIslam:
Ok, lets not get into another fight here. Lets get this thread back on track.

That's your opinion.
Other people's opinions are none of my business.
Lewinsky Stinks, Dr. Brennan Rocks:
Down, thanks for defending me, but let's not indulge this anymore than needs be. Getting back to the topic, I think women are socialized to be more left-wing and "nurturing" than men and that it will take nothing but time to get a large number of Kahanist females on our board. We should take comfort in the fact that now there are more than at any time in the past.
Ehud:
I'm actually quite satisfied with the wonderful women we already have, but of course it would be better to expand the movement. There are lots of great women out there in the world but they are probably busy with their lives and don't go onto the internet too much. The problem is that most women don't get heavily involved in political organizations, especially right wing ones. The other problem is that women usually don't get heavily involved in online organizations and forums. If you look at the people who are in any forum, most of the time it's overwhelmingly male unless you're talking about an apolitical forum like a law school forum that I frequent for instance....
So those two things are big problems when it comes to attracting women to the JTF. When I get to school I'm going to become a member of the pro-Israel groups on campus and sharing JTF to these women (and of course men) is going to be a top priority. There are great women out there to be found, we just might need to go out there on the ground to find them.
I know I wouldn't have found JTF if I wasn't the big computer nerd I am, so I think that the biggest problem is that most women aren't involved on the internet as much as men are, especially politically. I believe we can somewhat counter that problem with an on-the-ground spreading of JTF to women who are members of campus organizations, synagogues, pro-Israel groups, etc.
